Benefits of Using an ERP System for Your Accounting

Utilizing an ERP system’s financial management capabilities delivers fully integrated end-to-end capabilities to reinvent financial management for manufacturers and distributors. Keep reading to learn more about the benefits afforded to your business through EPR financial capabilities.
Interminable Access to Financial Information
The age of digging through traditional software and spreadsheets to find important financial information is over. ERP software grants businesses around the clock access to critical information. Plus, cloud-based ERP allows employees to access critical information from anywhere.
Businesses that are organized in their processes and resources can maintain excellent financial habits. Additionally, ERP software safeguards important and confidential data by eliminating the need for storing data on spreadsheets or paper files.
Eliminate Errors
Manually entering data can lead to human errors and data silos. Losing key entries and imputing data incorrectly can lead to problems in any business’s financial department. Thus, resulting in diminishing the quality of financial reports and analysis.
Due to the automation of data entry in an ERP system, you eliminate those detrimental errors and improve your business’s financial situation.
Manage Accounting
The marketing team in any manufacturing or distribution business is critical to the business’s success! ERP financial capabilities streamline the accounting department in the following ways:
- Develop an accurate budget
- Estimate capital requirements and cash management
- Manage payments
- Allocate funds to necessary inventory and labor costs
Automated Data
Automated functionality allows businesses to focus on more important aspects of their business. In short, because data is automated and updates automatically, your operations are improved and simplified. Some of the areas where automated data will streamline business finances include accounts receivable, cash management, and accounts payable. Plus, automation will improve cash flow inconsistencies.
Further, robust ERP software like Infor CloudSuite is fully customizable, so you can choose what data will be collected from various departments to compose automated financial reports and statements.
